Mold

AST utilizes state-of-the art techniques including component removal, tested cleaning methods, and specialized products specifically designed for the mold abatement industry. But once it's gone, we want to make sure it never returns. So we use our understanding of mold growth, to identify the problem areas and develop a plan of action to resolve the issues.

Inspection

A visual inspection of the mold, or suspected mold, in your facility is an important first step for several reasons:

For all of the mold that is visible, there may be much more that lies behind walls or wallpaper, under carpet or above ceiling tiles, in ductwork or around heating and cooling systems. This hidden mold can be just as dangerous, if not more so, than the visible mold. AST will inspect using state-of-the-art technologies.

Including These: Moisture meter

Humidity gauge

Borescope

Infrared thermal imaging cameras

Please contact us if you are uncertain whether you are dealing with mold issue, or if you are ready to schedule your inspection today.

Testing

When needed, AST will send Certified Industrial Hygienists, Environmental Scientists and various Indoor Air Quality Specialists who will use specialized equipment for sampling, and document pertinent conditions including moisture levels, temperature, and humidity which are critical for mold growth.

Our professionals identify trouble areas and recommend a course of action to resolve indoor air quality problems.

Samples of the affected area and surrounding environment will be tested throughout the project (both Culturable and Non-Culturable).

Laboratory testing confirms that mold has been effectively removed before your project is considered complete.

AST uses only NVLAP & AIHA Accredited Laboratories, and tests bulk samples, air and surface samples.

Please contact us for more information on our testing procedures, or to schedule an appointment with one of our trained professionals.

Remediation

Each of AST's mold technicians has been specifically trained in the removal and cleaning of microbiological contaminates.

For your safety, our remediation specialists isolate mold contaminated areas with a series of engineering controls. This helps ensure that mold does not contaminate other areas.

Work areas are contained to separate the work environment from non-work areas

Negative air pressure machines draw air and contaminates from the contained area through High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters, and exhausts it to the outside

Utilization of state-of-the art techniques including component removal, tested cleaning methods, and specialized products specifically designed for the mold abatement industry
